Time for a new camera man. Better yet, have him stand on shore too.

The diffs will have water in them especially if you were driving a while before the submersion.

"get out and film me im gonna do it again" so wheres the better video with the camera outside (just hoping)

x32 on the diff breathers. may as well snork it as well, go look at where your airbox is in the engine bay. than spray a house through the grill and see if it gets wet

Wow idk if i would call that ballsy or jsut plain stupid cause you know swamplands have no bottom.
Either way, looks like a good time



Churnin a bottomless pit








What you gotta do is extend your diff breathers, put some silicone on your dizzy and give it a breather hose, and bring your intake up even if its just a little higher and up in the corner of the engine bay.

You should be pretty safe with that

it also helps to have your exhaust out of the water...everybody calls me stupid and ignorant for puttin some stacks on my '80..well i remember being the only one carrying all of the people through the DEEEEP water out to the party's

i've been thinking of ways to attach a hose or something similar to the tip of my exhaust on the 4runner...just for doing some deep water crossings..lol

i already know all the rest of the stuff to do..like get the computer into the glovebox..lmao..seal the dizzy..and the tranny..t-case as well..maybe even make a breather for the t-case..as well as the axles..might even replace the rubber on the doors and such to acquire a better seal..lol idk about ya'll but i hate the smell of moldy carpet..lol
